Glock 19: The Perfect Blend Of Power And Performance
Glock 45 is a 9mm, striker-fired pistol with a safe action. It is a crossover model that combines the G19 and the G17, and it has a variety of features, including: ambidextrous slide release, interchangeable backstraps, a flared magazine well, and a visible and palpable loaded chamber indicator integrated as part of the extractor.
Full-size frame
Glock pistols have a well-deserved reputation for reliability and durability. They have survived abusive tests dreamed up by Austrian Armed Forces, including dropping them from 2-meter heights and firing 15,000 rounds. They also hold up under extremely hot temperatures.
G45s are perfect for law enforcement officers. Their full-size frame fits larger hands and allows for more ammo capacity and better control. Their compact slide also makes them lighter, with less muzzle flip. This combination of features allows them to clear duty holsters more quickly and allow for better balance in the hand.
Compact slide
The Glock 45 is a 9mm pistol with a compact slide mounted on a full-sized frame. It uses the latest Gen 5 enhancements, including the nDLC finish and rough frame texture, Glock Marksman Barrel, interchangeable backstraps, and a flared mag well that makes it easier to funnel the magazine into place.
The trigger is smooth and crisp, and the ambidextrous slide release makes it easy to operate for left-handed shooters. This new model is a good choice for home defense or duty carry. It is a reliable gun that will not disappoint you at the range.
Ambidextrous slide release
The ambidextrous slide release makes it easy for both right- and left-handed shooters to manipulate the gun. It features a thicker and more robust lever that’s angled slightly to provide easier contact. The lever also has a longer stroke for better operation. Its ion-bonded nDLC finish is tougher than previous generations and offers improved protection against corrosion and scratching.
The Glock 45 is a compact crossover gun that shares the compact dimensions of the Glock 17 with the larger grip of the Glock 19. It has a shorter barrel and is a bit lighter than the duty-size Glock 17. This combination makes it an ideal choice for concealed carry and home defense.
Interchangeable backstraps
The Glock 45 is a crossover pistol that uses compact slides on a full-size frame. This makes it more comfortable to carry for many users, especially those with smaller hands. It also features a reversible magazine catch and a dual recoil spring assembly.
The Glock 45 is also available in a MOS configuration. This model features a slide cut for the mounting of a red-dot optic, as well as front serrations that give the operator extra gripping surface options. The MOS variant is also the only version that can mount an accessory rail.
Ambidextrous slide stop
The ambidextrous slide stop of the Glock 45 allows left-handed shooters to easily manipulate their firearm. It also makes reloading more efficient and comfortable, especially during stressful situations. This upgrade is available for Gen 5 Glock pistols and is a great choice for law enforcement personnel.
NDZ Performance offers a wide selection of Glock extended slide release brands to facilitate quicker reloads and troubleshooting malfunctions. Whether you’re an avid competitor or a law enforcement officer, this is an essential upgrade for your gun.
Unlike polygonal rifling, traditional groove-type rifling delivers superior accuracy. The gen 5 Glock was developed to meet FBI requirements. These included traditional-style riflings, a flared mag well, ambidextrous slide stops and removal of finger grooves molded into the grip frame.
Ambidextrous magazine release
The ambidextrous magazine release is an aftermarket accessory that allows the user to operate the magazine release from either side. It provides left-handed shooters and those in certain tactical situations the ability to quickly swap magazines. It is designed to work with all mil-spec AR-15 lowers and requires no modifications or tools.
The ambidextrous magazine release mechanism is operated by a single button actuated with the index finger of either hand. It is a drop in part and works with all 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Glocks. It is made from rugged machined billet tool steel. It also includes an extra power magazine catch spring.
Conclusion
For some operators the stock Glock trigger feels mushy and has significant creep. Fortunately, there are several trigger upgrades available that can help. These upgrades are relatively inexpensive and easy to install. They also retain OEM reliability and durability.
One of the best is the Timney Alpha Competition drop-in trigger kit, which includes a machined trigger shoe, trigger bar, and trigger connector. This upgrade offers a smooth, light trigger pull and fast reset. It also has less creep and a reduced overtravel. The kit is easy to install and requires no modification of the firing pin.
